Will this be good for a 20 inch boys mongoose freestyle bike? Would I get a 1 or 4? I would appreciate you're help.

I think it's probably just the thing. My bike is 20" and all the stands I had before were cast aluminum and broke within a couple weeks. They cost >$25. This one is steel and cost a lot less and that was installed over six months ago. Good luck!I don't know what a 1 or a 4 means. I didn't pay attention to any size codes and don't know what I have, maybe I got lucky.(For once).

Get the size 1, it will fit a bike up to 26." We used it on my son's 20-inch bike when we took off his training wheels, and it works perfectly. It was stiff at first, but you can spray a little WD40 on it (or any lubricant, I guess) and work it a few times, and the stiffness soon disappears.

Yes, it would work. It's a little stiff but the install is simple. Its adustable. Not sure what you mean by a 1 or 4. Hope this helps.

go with the 24" unless you are still growing. there is some seat adjustment height in all bikes but this type of bike is an entry level one size fits most model. my suggestion would be to visit a bike shop and see if a 24 or 26 feels better to you. FYI this was purchased for a granddaughter and see is about 5'1" and it fits her fine. good luck and happy trails. the bassetfarm

Mine didn't fit my kids bike because it had gears on the back wheel that didn't allow it to fit the one side. I tried to bend the one bar so it would touch correctly. It was really heavy gauge and difficult to bend. I couldn't get it to work for me. If you are able to bend them that may do, otherwise, you may need something else. My kids bike was only 20", so they may be too small for a 26" bike. Good luck on your decision. Eric

Unfortunately, I don't have the bikes at the house as they are at the boat. I am 5'11" tall and I don't have short legs (or long legs for that matter). The seat can be set to fit me perfectly and there is still a good amount of height it could be raised beyond my setting if need be. Here is what the Dahon site says about the 20" wheeled bikes which this one is ... "The 16" and 20" folders are designed with extendable seat posts for a customized fit and are ideal for riders from 4'4" -6'4" (130 cm - 190 cm);"

I think this one will work. I don't remember my son's measurements right off hand, but we lowered it for him and he was able to learn how to ride on it. We couldn't find a smaller one when we were looking. But our boy certainly got our money's worth out of this one. In fact, he's now bought a newer more robust one.

I have a heavy duty Dutch bike. I haven't installed this one yet. My friend has it on a hybrid and it works nicely for her. If you have a fixie or light weight road bike I would ask around more.

The side arm will only work on 20-29" wheels. You may have luck with the Raptor Aero or the Thule Criterium and that may work. Kids bikes are always tricky.

Is the 20" bike a one speed? Then yes this will work. Depending upon the configuration of size for your crank teeth and rear teeth, you might have to remove a few links from this chain to fit properly.

We have 4 bike on ours and it is not to bad. Our bikes are light. It would depend on how you hang them.

That's the ideal set up but it was uncomfotablre for a petite like me. I have a 20" bike and I mount the tyke toter in the lowest possible, touching the bike's body so I can have the seat to its lowest position with my feet at least slightly on the ground. It also gives me the comfort that my child's more steady in front of me than in that elevated position.

Hey Will, just wondering if you bought this bike and successfully put 32's on the bike? I just saw my friends tires and 23's are way too skinny! Not to mention I'd bet you'd feel EVERY piece of dirt. I'd like to know before I commit.

I ride a Torker myself, and I'm 5"10 and 140. I would go for the 20 inch wheel, because it will give you a good amount of control.

I bought 12in before my son was 4 years old and he is a little tall. I recommend this bike size before 4 years. I believe he should be good to go for a couple years.

my son's bike is 20", these work fine for that size. for what they are and the price i paid, i was very happy with the purchase.

I'm 5'10" and the bike a a bit small for me, but it's not 12"s small. Many bikes you'll find (even at walmart) are going to be 20", like this one. Best suggestion is to go stand over one of them before buying.

Should, it's good sized. We had to work to get it on my kids 20 inch bike and the screw holes were wrong so we zip tied the thing in place but it's well made and doesn't move. The "universal" kit didn't fit the BMX so, zip ties

It's a 20" bike which means it's the kind they use for BMX Freestyle for boys 12 and over more or less. Bike is 3 feet in width ( handle bars width) 6 feet length. Very good bike very sturdy high quality.
